We have had an extremely rainy start to the spring season, with this morning being no exception. So, when there seemed to be a brief reprieve, I took advantage of the time between the showers to snap a few shots.
There wasn’t a ton of activity, but here are a couple of birds that stopped by.
White-breasted Nuthatch
Northern Cardinal
And here are a couple more.
Pine Warbler
Carolina Wren
I saved my favorite photo for last. 🙂
Here’s hoping for sunny skies soon…or even overcast skies…or puffy white clouded skies…
You get the idea!

Beautiful captures. Those little wrens do love their mealworms don’t they?
They do!
that last one is especially cute! At least you aren’t getting snow into late April like us! Spring seems to have finally arrived last Friday with 60s and 70s and sunshine all weekend and today!
Hooray for 60’s and 70’s!
Wonderful photos!
Hey Kathie, send some of that rain over our way as we are in drought, we could easily trade😊
Deal!
WOOOW such beautiful shots you always take! I’m wondering, could you show us your set up at some point? I was thinking of hanging some sort of branch with a little food dish out of my window so I could take photos of the birds that come by! Your work is so inspiring
I will try to include that in an upcoming post. Thanks for the suggestion!
These are great shots and I love the last one as well – really enjoying that mealworm! 🙂
They have such perky personalities!
I know!! I love watching birds and had pet birds through the years as well – people don’t give birds the credit they are due and they are all interesting personalities. Can’t you just picture a thought bubble over his head as he’s holding that prize treat that looks almost 1/3 his size … “this mealworm is mine … all mine!” 🙂
Benjamin is having a sleepover with me tonight and we came to visit just before bedtime. The Carolina Wren with the “bedtime snack” is his favorite. You certainly have many different birds visit your feeders. I like the Pine Warbler’s coloration, this a bird that I have never seen before. Beautiful photos, each and every one. Thank-you x 2!!
Always a pleasure to hear your thoughts x2!
LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! and especially the last! 😀
Such wonderful photos… you took great advantage between the rain showers… I miss the Cardinals since I moved to the west…
I would miss them too!
Frost on our lawn in the morning here. 😮 Yet the weather man is predicting 70’s this week! Love your photos, Kathy! ❤️
The wren and the grub is an absolute gem of a picture. I also love the cardinal as we don’t have them in the UK.
The male cardinals are looking their finest these days as they try to woo the women!
Ah, like all birds. The chaps have to try very hard to win over a mate.
